Westlake Radials
This radial ply tire from Westlake is constructed with double steel belts and double polyester cords for increased durability. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation.
The standard tread on this tire has solid, continuous ribs, and there are very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. This tire is designed for use on trailers, so it doesn't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Radial Tires vs. Bias Tires
Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.

This is the second tire I bought for my RV. The product
Arrived a day earlier. The sales person was very knowledgeable and helpful.
I highly recommend E-Trailer
For all your needs

Tire arrived in perfect condition. The year of the tire was made was the year purchased. Will purchase another set in two years since I replace every three years. Price was good.
Thanks you,

I am a great fan of etrailer, but these tires are very poor. I am very diligent about tire pressures and lug nut torque and check both before every trip or after an overnight stop. Tires are inflated per the manufacturers specification. The trailer had these as OEM equipment, and this tire was a replacement for one of them. The trailer is 24' and was carrying my Mini track car. Speed was around 70mph as a maximum. We weighed it and it was certainly no where near the weight limit for the trailer or the tires. Despite all of that, three of these tires delaminated and exploded on my ATC trailer in the space of two trips over about 6 months. They were costly to replace and did significant damage to my wheel wells and steps, which added to the expense. I would not recommend buying these tires.

Very good tires, second set I've owned.. Will use them again.. We have an account with etrailer. Always have treated up well.
by: Dane 07/21/2022
These tires are exactly what I ordered they are a very good tire. Had some exactly like these on another trailer and they did fantastic no problems and tread wear was good.

The tires I purchased have been working fantastic. I especially like them that they dont have little sipes in the tires which allows them to get rid of the rocks and dont get stuck in the tread. Wear is also perfect. Would recommend this tire to anyone that needs them.
by: Brian03/29/2022
I give a 5 star rating to etrailer as they never disappoint. I'm hoping these 4 tires that go on my camper will do the same. I was pleased them as the original camper tire.

In the past year we have traveled from Virginia to Nova Scotia and back. And also from Virginia to Florida and back. The tires still look brand new. Thus, very pleased!

Absolutely great packaging and shipping. Quick turn around from order to receipt. Now there is one more item that I can add to my list to purchase from your company. Thank you so much.

Still a wonderful set of tires. I will definitely reorder when these get to that worn out period.
by: Al05/20/2018
When a nail punctured the sidewall of my trailer tire I found myself in need of a quick replacement. With no local business able to provide an exact replacement, a web search quickly yielded information about etrailer and their quality of service. After ordering, I had the tire in a very short time and I’m back on the road! Great support, and always kept informed that my order had been placed, shipped, and delivered. Can’t ask for much more than that.
by: Thomas R07/04/2023
I checked with the “Big Tire Companies such as Les Schwab, and Americas Tires and I had no luck. They said that they couldn’t get the same tire that I needed. I called e trailer and they knew exactly what I needed. I paid for it and a couple of days later I received exactly what I needed. Super People,Super Store,
Super Service. I have will be back for more items.

Showed up fast! Days earlier than expected. Definitely the turn-to company for trailer tires
by: Robert12/06/2022
I give one star because I can't give 0!
I've had nothing but trouble. Two of four of these tires have delaminated causing over five thousand dollars in damages to my 2019 Grand Design 21g. I have used a tire pressure monitoring system since day one. Always running the recommended 80 psi cold. I removed all of these tires "China Bombs " and threw them away. I replaced them with Goodyear Endurance. I'm just one of many victims of these tires. Do your homework!You will find many people with the same problems. My tires had less than 9000 miles when they just exploded. I am a very careful driver and there is nothing I could have done to contribute to the tire failures. Note the two failures were more than a month apart. On opposite sides of the camper.

In stock, exact match for my Aluma trailer and terrific customer service
by: Randy08/02/2018
Made in China has a connotation of poor quality at best, most of the time junk.
These Westlake tires are made in China however to the contrary they are top-quality.
Don’t hesitate in using these as replacement!
Plus buy them from etrailer.com, for first class service, call and asked for Chris W!!

Fast delivery and the exact part I orde red.
by: Wayne05/15/2022
Unfortunately we had 2 blowouts with these Westlake tires in August 2021. 1 of them was less that a year old with maybe 1,000 miles on it. After the 2nd blowout which caused significant damage to the travel trailer, we replace all Westlakes with another brand.
by: Joseph 08/21/2022
I caught a nail in one of my tires close to the outside tread making it necessary to replace the tire. I replaced the bad tire with factory supplied Westlake tire. The original tires have about 3,500 miles on them and are wearing well.
by: Brad04/22/2019
purchased with white rims to match....has been a good purchase and received some valued input from e-trailer. (needed better load range tires but needed rims to match my bolt pattern). Tires seem to be of high quality.

Arrived earlier than expected. Easy website to navigate
Product as described

Fast shipping and an exact replacement for my travel trailer. I've had these Westlake ST 225/75R15s on my GD2970RL (8,500lbs) for just under a year and have had no problems at all, and we've towed a solid 5,000 miles or more so far. Yes, they are Chinese made, but they have to meet DOT standards and I know plenty of folks that run these on various types of trailers with no problems at all. We were returning from a camping trip recently and got a sharp piece of metal stuck in the side of one of the tires. We're pretty sure it was from an area of road construction we went through. Would've been the exact same outcome even if I had a super high-end tire. The tire held up perfectly other than the small leak. Luckily, we have roadside assistance, so they helped get us swapped over to the spare pretty quick. Had a real hard time finding one locally, but etrailer had me a new one in 2 days! Not even gonna miss our trip this weekend! Thanks etrailer!

- Best Heavy-Duty Tires for 15 Inch WheelsWe can definitely get you the best tires for 15 inch wheels, you just need to make sure when they are fully inflated that you have the proper clearance. With trailer tires, the general rule of thumb is you want at least 3" of clearance from the top of the tire to your fender and at least 1" of clearance between the inside of the tire and your trailer's frame rail. So with that in mind the best trailer tires with a high load rating for 15 inch wheels are the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial...
view full answer... - Which Westlake ST225/75R15 Tires Are the Exact Replacements For Tires with 117/112L On ThemYou're looking for the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304, which has a 117 load rating and 112L speed rating; this information is noted in the sidewall, so I've included a photo of this as well. I've linked a review video of this tire for you, as well. Prices are available on the parts page.

- Should Tire Pressure Be Adjusted to Account for Heat While DrivingYour tires like the # LHWL300 should still be inflated to 65 psi. When the manufacturers set the cold fill rating they account for variations due to temperature change from weather and driving. As a general rule of thumb, tire pressure increases by 1 psi for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit of temperature change. A 10 psi change is fairly normal, and anything over 15 psi is where you should be concerned and address it. If you find that your tires are overheating it is likely due to improper...
view full answer... - How to Determine if a Larger Tire Size Can Be Used on a TrailerChoosing the correct replacement tire/wheel will depend on a few things. First, and most importantly, will be the tire clearance. The standard ST225/75R15, like the Westlake # LHWL304, will have a diameter of 28.3 inches and you will need to have at least 3 inches from the top of the tire to the bottom of fender. The Kenda Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire with 16" Aluminum Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2 - Load Range E # AM32734 will have a diameter of 31.6 inches, so you will need to make sure...

- Can 5 Year Old Trailer Tires that Were Covered and Look Good be UsedWith trailer tires they say that they need to be replaced between 4 and 6 years of age due to them breaking down over time. Since yours were covered mostly and there are no visible signs of failure I would easily think you'd be able to get the max year range of 6 from what you have. I'd just keep an eye on them. In your tire size of 235/80R16 we have the great # WST54FR for if you were to need a replacement.

view full answer... - Trailer Tire Recommendation for 15 inch Diameter Wheels on Travel TrailerI recommend the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304 which is rated for 2,830 lbs at 80 psi and speeds up to 75 mph as it sounds like you have 15 inch trailer wheels currently. It comes with a 5 year warranty and two years of complimentary roadside assistance. You'd need to have a triple axle setup though for these tires to have the capacity needed. If you have a different axle setup or wheel diameter email me back and I'll do my best to come up with your best...
view full answer... - Aluminum Wheel Recommendation for Trailer for Tire Size ST225/75-15My favorite aluminum trailer wheel we offer that matches the criteria you mentioned is the Aluminum Liger Trailer Wheel - 15" x 5" - 5 on 4-1/2 - Gunmetal Gray # LH35FR. This is a 15 inch diameter by 5 inch wide wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern with black accents. This wheel was designed for the trailer tire size of 225/75-15 that you mentioned as well like the Westlake ST225/75R15 # LHWL304 which has a speed rating of 75 mph and a capacity of 2,830 lbs at 80 psi.
view full answer... - Best Replacement Trailer Tire to Fit 15 inch Trailer WheelBest option would be to switch to a radial trailer tire as they tend to wear better and last longer for highway use. Also going up to the nexte size of 225/75-15 would help too. For that the best option would be the Westlake ST225/75R15 Load Range E # LHWL304 which has a capacity of 2,830 lbs at 80 psi and a speed rating of 75 mph. This also comes with a 2 year roadside assistance program. If your RV or trailer has a flat tire, call the help line and a technician will come change the...
view full answer... - Aluminum Wheels/Tire Combo to Replace 205/75-15 Tires on Travel TrailerI don't offer a load range E tire in the 205/75-15 size, but we do in the 225/75-15. A 225/75-15 tire would be one inch wider which would move the inner sidewall of the tire 1/2 inch closer to the trailer. The tire is 1 inch larger in diameter which would raise your travel trailer's ride height by 1/2 inch. If you need a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern wheel, you'll need to purchase the wheel and tires separate as we don't offer a tire in that size mounted to a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern aluminum...

The Kenda Karrier # AM10303 is the tire I'd recommend. Kenda is absolutely relentless when it comes to product sampling and testing, and is committed to making sure their customers get a high quality tire at a fair price. The # AM10303 225/75-15 Load Range E radial tire has a 2830 lb capacity per tire/5660 lb capacity per axle. The tire carries an M (81 mph) speed rating. If...
view full answer... - Does Westlake ST225/75R15 Trailer Tire Really Come With Complimentary Road-Side Assistance?That is 100% true. The Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304 you were looking at does have 2-year complimentary road side assistance which allows you access to a hotline to get you in contact with a technician. They will actually come out and change your flat 24/7, 365 as long as you are in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico.
view full answer... - Reasons For Choosing A Kenda Trailer Tire Over Other Brands AvailableThe Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15 Trailer Tire # AM10303 actually doesn't have many drawbacks. This is a radial tire, so it is great for long distance highway use. The Load Range E means it is rated up to 2,830 pounds at 80 psi and the M Speed Rating means it is also rated up to 81 miles per hour. The only "downside" I can give is that their is no roadside assistance available with it. With that said, the Westlake ST225/75R15 Trailer Tire # LHWL304 will also be a radial tire, is also rated...
view full answer... - Proper Air Pressure for ST225/75R15 Load Range E Trailer TiresUnlike passenger vehicle tires that have an acceptable range of air pressure, trailer tires need to be kept fully inflated to the max pressure listed on the tire's sidewall in order to meet their load rating. If you run the tires at a lower air pressure, the tire's load rating will be unknown as most trailer tires don't load test their tires at a reduced air pressure. Also, if you run your tires underinflated by 33%, you'll experience uneven tire wear with the outer edges of the tread...

The tire comes with a 5 year warranty. If you only use your trailer on road and are okay going down to a slightly smaller size the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # LHWL304 may be a better choice. It will carry the same 5 year warranty but as this is an on road tire it will not make as much noise and the tread may last...

view full answer... - What Tire and Rims do I Need to Replace a 15-Inch Diameter 5 on 4-3/4 Lug Patterned Rim?Thanks so much for following up with us. From the sounds of it, you determined that you have a 5 on 4-3/4 lug pattern on your rims. We only carry one rim with that specific pattern that measures 15 inches in diameter. That is the Taskmaster Steel 8-Spoke Trailer Wheel w/ Offset - 15" x 5" Rim - 5 on 4-3/4 # TTW550547WS1. With that being said, you need to verify if your 225/75-15 tire fits 5 inch wide rims. However, we do have tires that definitely do fit the # TTW550547WS1. For that route,...
view full answer... - Determining If 14 Wheels On Trailer Can Be Replaced With 15 WheelsI would be happy to help! You do not need to change your hubs to upgrade from 14" wheels to 15" wheels, you will just need to make sure your trailer has enough clearance to fit the larger tires that are used on 15" wheels. The Westlake ST225/75R15 # LHWL304 you were looking at measure 28.3" tall by 8.8" wide so you will need to compare that to the dimensions of your current 14" tire. If your trailer currently has the ST205/75R14 like the # AM10235 then the tire is 26.3" tall and 8.1"...
view full answer... - Can I Go Down to Smaller Tires on My TrailerYes, assuming that it doesn't lower your coach too much and the smaller tire is within the correct load carrying capacity. A tire with the measurement of ST205/75r15 like a # TR20515D is 27.1" tall and 8.1" wide, but the largest capacity tires available at this size are a Load Range D with a 2150-lbs per tire capacity. A tire that measures ST 225/75/r15 like the # LHWL304, is 28.3" tall and 8.9" wide, so it's only a bit taller and wider, but it has been rated as Load Range E with a capacity...
view full answer... - Will 225/75-15 Tire Fit on 5 Inch Wide WheelIt sure will! A 225/75-15 tire will fit on a wheel that's 5, 6, 6-1/2, or 7 inches wide. I've linked to the 225/75-15 load range C, D and E tires we offer.
view full answer... - Tire Size Measurement Calculation On Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # LHWL304You are correct, the first number of the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # LHWL304 is the width. The 225 is the mm measurement or 8.85" wide. The 2nd number 75 is the percentage of the width the tire side wall is tall. So 75% of 225 is 168.75mm or a 6.64" tall side wall. And being on a 15" wheel the final number gives you a total height of 28.28".
view full answer... - Does The Lionshead Liger Trailer Wheel LH34FR Have A Maximum Air Pressure Rating?The Lionshead Aluminum Liger Trailer Wheel # LH34FR does have an 1,820 pound load limit, but it will not really carry a max pressure as it will always be more than any tire that can be installed on it. I will say that you are limited to 65 psi due to the valve stem that comes included, so something like the Westlake ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # LHWL300 would match this perfectly. However, If you wanted a heavier duty tire, like the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer...
view full answer... - Is There a Load Inflation Chart for the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer TireI am not aware of any load inflation chart for the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire part # LHWL304. These charts are only available for select trailer tires, the Goodyear Endurance is the only one I know of. Therefore, you'll want to fill these tires to the max psi while cold of 80 psi regardless of load.
view full answer... - Lug Nut Torque for Aluminum Wheel 15 Inch DiameterThe Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Black # LHSL311 should be torqued to between 90 and 100 ft lbs based on the wheel size, stud size, and wheel material. I've attached a chart to assist. I recommend the Lionshead Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304 tires for these trailer wheels. They are rated for 2,830 lbs at 80 psi and speeds up to 75 mph. They come with the 5 year warranty and 2 years complimentary roadside assistance.
